The 1924 assassination of their leader Peter Verigin by a bomb aboard a train became a huge national sensation. Forgotten Canadian history trivia. Ran across this for an alt-history fiction piece I wrote. #hatm

I read that in the early 20th century, the Russian sect, Doukhobors, were the largest mass immigration group in Canadian history (aided by Quakers). But as pacifists they did not integrate well, and were disenfranchised until c. 1950. #hatm

Not that I think it’s really acceptable and there should always be pushback whenever there is corruption involved in major projects (be it a rail line or subway). But it is funny to remember that the CPR transcontinental line was one of the most corrupt, scandalous affairs in Canadian history

These four fabulous TIFF documentaries interrogate Canada’s history and culture
The history of Canada is no simple thing. It’s a collection of diverse stories about diverse people and experiences. Documentary film can be an important tool for learning about ourselves, and others. With that in mind, here’s a list of documentaries we saw at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), all of which tell stories that teach us things about Canada’s past and present.

If you allow Alberta Taxpayers to pony up for this rubbish (because the pathways people know its bs and won't pay)
it will be the largest "bargain theft" in Canadian History.

Looking forward to "Mountain Voices" taking its place atop the Canadian History & Environment tower of power.
And we're always looking for more books for the series. If interested in developing an #envhist / #cdnhist collection, drop a line.

13/15 The rally's name, "Canada First," isn't an innocent expression of patriotism. It carries a deeply disturbing lineage in Canadian history.
It's been the banner for at least two prior white supremacist movements, one of which explicitly sought to establish a "superior Aryan race" in the nation.

1/15 🇨🇦 A 'PATRIOT' RALLY TARGETED HALLOWED GROUND IN CANADIAN HISTORY 🇨🇦
On September 13th, an anti-immigration protest descended upon Toronto's #ChristiePits, the very site of a legendary 1933 riot against #Nazism, aiming to overwrite its legacy.
Online research into the inevitable confrontation.

I often tell my students that they'll learn more about Canada's history by reading Bob Joseph's "21 Things..." than what most social studies classes have an offer (we study the text in my classes extensively).

Former Senator and Progressive Conservative member of Parliament for Edmonton Doug Roche says our #ForeverCanadian petition comes at the most important moment in Canadian history in his lifetime. He was proud to sign the petition to keep Alberta in Canada.
